Fun facts about Zaijian Jaranilla that will make you love him more!

We got our eyes on Zaijian Jaranilla, the former child star who is certainly going to win more hearts in the years to come as he takes on bolder roles that fully spotlight his brilliance. Currently, he’s part of the mystery coming-of-age series “Senior High” as the good student Tim.

As we look forward to his next revelations in the trending Kapamilya teleserye, let us first take a quick update on the child wonder-turned-heartthrob via this edition of High Profile.

The former ‘saint boy’ is now a sporty dude; he’s into basketball and archery. He likes the color black. If you wish to give him food, here’s a tip: he likes Japanese cuisine and all things spicy. His favorite ice cream flavor is cookies and cream.

Zaijian, or Zaijian Godsick in real life, plays computer games like Dota and watches movies a lot to de-stress. He identifies himself as a PC geek, proof is his collection of computer parts and Dota figures.

His favorite childhood memory is hanging socks on Christmas Eve until he was old enough to know that it wasn’t Santa Claus but his parents filling the stockings with candies. The ultimate travel spot for him is Marinduque, his province, “’Pag doon ako sa province, naliligo lang ako palagi sa dagat at sobrang tahimik.”

Born on August 23, 2001, Zaijian is a Virgo. When asked what the stars tell about his personality, he laughed and said he’s no astrology fan like his co-star Andrea Brillantes.

He’s easy to get along with, though he prefers a friend who has the same humor as him, dependable, and loyal.

In “Senior High,” Zaijian plays a model student in Northford High, which is pretty much like him in real life. He describes himself as a student “na tahimik at saka mahilig ako makinig.” But he also knows how to have fun, “’Pag kasama ko ‘yung mga kaibigan ko, siyempre, makulit ako.”

Catch Zaijian in “Senior High,” weeknights, on Kapamilya Channel, Kapamilya Online Live, TV5, and A2Z.
